About Experience Newquay
Experience Newquay believes that the start of a new season is the perfect opportunity to experience the coast from a fresh perspective, with plenty on offer to visitors in the autumn and winter months.
Experience Newquay is a new project for the town, brought to you by Cornwall Council in collaboration with Love Newquay, Visit Newquay and Visit Cornwall.
It aims to promote a sustainable, year-round economy for Newquay by highlighting the benefits of off-season travel to the area.
Inspiration
Through curated ‘5 to try’ recommendations, Experience Newquay will showcase the wealth of activities available in autumn and winter.
Whilst encouraging visitors to use local public transport and take part in eco-initiatives (such as beach cleans and volunteering), so that every stay can have a positive impact.
